What this means for a buyer
The question for a buyer is simple. What does the Hilton name cost you per sq ft, and what does it give back?
| Off plan apartments, Dubai Maritime City, Sept 2026 | Sales | Median price | Median size | Per sq ft |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 14 | AED 1,375,000 | 404 sq ft | AED 3,413 |
| 1 bedroom | 72 | AED 2,487,032 | 775 sq ft | AED 3,201 |
| 2 bedroom | 19 | AED 4,738,082 | 1,377 sq ft | AED 2,820 |
| All off plan apartments | 111 | AED 3,202 |
Registered sales from the Dubai Land Department transaction file, September 2026, Cresco analysis on actual unit area (DLD open data). When Prestige One publishes prices, compare the Hilton price per sq ft with the AED 3,202 district median. Ask what the premium buys: hotel style services, a rental programme, or only the name.
Total cost. Add the 4% Dubai Land Department transfer fee to the price (Bayut fee guide). Imagine a unit at AED 2.5 million. The fee alone is AED 100,000. The service charge has not been published.
Golden Visa. The median 1 bedroom off plan sale in the district was AED 2,487,032 in September 2026. That is above the AED 2 million level for the 10 year UAE Golden Residency (ICP). Check your own unit price.
Resale depth. 111 off plan apartments were registered in Dubai Maritime City in September 2026. That is a real market, but a smaller one than the large mainland communities.
Honest limits. Prestige One has not published prices, unit sizes, the payment plan, the service charge, the handover date or escrow details. Rents and gross yield for comparable ready units in Dubai Maritime City are not published on our data basis, so we do not quote them. Listing prices on portals are not developer prices.

Source: Dubai Land Department open data. Registered sales of residential units between 1 September 2026 and 11 October 2026. Mortgages and gift transfers are excluded because they are not arms length sales. Sizes are converted from square metres at 10.7639 sq ft per sq m. The entry price shown for this project is our advertised starting price and is not a registered transaction. Community figures are medians across every project in the community, not this project alone. We do not publish a price per square foot for this project because advertised size ranges are not a reliable basis for that calculation.
What actually transacted in Dubai Maritime City
Before you judge a launch price, look at what the community around it registered. Over the last twelve months Dubai Maritime City recorded 1,365 registered rental contracts and 35 ready sales, all filed with the Dubai Land Department. These are signed contracts, not asking prices.
Rent registered at AED 122 per sqft against a ready sale price of AED 2,068 per sqft. That is a gross yield of 5.9% on ready stock in this community.
We use ready sale prices rather than blended prices deliberately. You cannot rent a property that has not been handed over, so an off plan launch price in a yield calculation produces a number that cannot happen.
Registered rents in Dubai Maritime City moved +16% against the twelve months before.
The shorter window disagrees. On the most recent three months of contracts the same community reads +7.1%. Summer seasonality and smaller samples both sit inside that number, but we publish it rather than quote only the figure that flatters the market.
| Unit type | Contracts registered | Average annual rent (AED) | Rent per sqft (AED) | Change vs 12 months earlier |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 13 | 62,612 | 135 | +3.1% |
| 1 bedroom | 1,296 | 42,786 | 123 | +13% |
| 2 bedroom | 45 | 132,156 | 94 | -4.7% |
| 3 bedroom | 11 | 225,818 | 110 | -5.6% |
| All apartments | 1,365 | 47,396 | 122 | +16% |
